Thread: FOLDING KNIFE FOR HUNTING

The mercator isn't stainless but it lives on my belt with my PLB permanently. Best edge and nice narrow blade for doing the arsehole on an animal, or the inner fillets from the outside of the ribs.
Only Opinel INOX is stainless, but I don't like how they stiffen up or go loose depending on the humidity.

+1 for ckt, have lost a few and cried though

i'll see if i have any of those four left lying around for you, i gave one away i recall but unsure where the rest are now

For folders I am a fan of Opinel, although I tend to break the tips off somehow, and the Svord peasant because of its niftyness, although the handle needs a lot of work to make it comfortable and the blade does need som reprofiling to be good - but I am hardly ever satisfied with anything straight out of the box so could just be me.

I personally prefer a small fixed blade (or a big fixed blade and bugger the weight) to a folder though, just seems like less to go wrong, although I usually pack a leatherman when I go bush - can do a lot with one of those little nuggets. And a fixed blade.
